This show is great. It's on Hulu for me as "Subscribed". Comedy wise you should also check out "Community". It's been a good season for new shows. **BRENT**

I love this show... **BRENT**

The Google Phone: what we know... and what we don't -- Engadget The engadget guys are probably the most trusted guys out there when it comes to this stuff, so there's some light reading for you. Cliffs notes: Probably a Snapdragon-based phone (fastest of the fast processors, possibly up to 1GHz clock speed) with a 3.7-inch AMOLED display, 5 megapixel camera (seemingly with flash), and no physical keyboard. Rumored to be sold unlocked and unsubsidized by T-Mobile through their retail channels, and have both AT&T and T-Mobile 3G bands. Oh, and obviously a trackball. My Notes: :prettyprincess: **BRENT**

Did you check to see if your employer has a discount through VZW? Don't forget that if you don't already have a contact there, I believe there will be ways to do it online that will waive the activation fees and whatnot. Also MIGHT be possible to get a 25$ credit on your account with a friends and family program or something. Let me know before you do it and I'll scout some options... usually pretty good at dealing with these things. You're coming from an iPhone, right? Data phone for the wife, or no? **BRENT**

Rockbox? What's wrong with WAV? **BRENT**

I concur. However, it's a valiant effort by both Motorola and Verizon, and I applaud them for it, as each of them needed to release a good phone. For people stuck with CDMA, it's a win. I carry T-Mo and VZW, live in 3G areas for both, and love it. I'm just expecting this to carry AWS1700 and handle HSPA+ and have a 5MP cam with flash (that's confirmed, at least) and hoping it will incorporate a better keyboard and hope 2.1 fixes the browser (it was so good pre-1.5) and a SnapDragon processor and a gig of ram (doesn't the N900 have a gig of ram?) and I'll go Oh, and dammit, a bloody 3.5mm jack. :facepalm: @ HTC with that one. **BRENT**

Glad you brought this up. I was a couple hours late noticing this, I'm slipping. I heard a rumor that it's going to be sold unlocked with 3G bands for ALL US GSM carriers. If so, that would just be crazy (and awesome, as it would hopefully set a precedent for future high end devices). If this came with a SnapDragon, I'd have to try to track one down. Heh, did you also notice that the poor quality twitter pic was taken with a white iPhone? I wonder if it's going to use the same 5MP cam (confirmed) that the Droid is using. I'm really hoping HTC will release a Leo-esque device (HD2) with Android 2.x. Probably, Nate. There are a couple solid devices out on CDMA carriers, but the real star (of the next few months on CDMA, at least) is the Droid. The Droid Eris on Verizon and the Hero on Sprint (revamped versions of the same phone) are both good devices, but running a dated processor (top of the line in August). The Droid is a major step up in speed, and the Google Navigation function is great, albeit a little flawed. I was using it daily in SoFla, but it led us astray in our quest for a pre-flight Five Guys burger. This was just on the 14 month old G1 which I had bogged down, but you could see where the Droid would definitely up it's game. I'm interested in seeing if this is the 'gPhone' or if it's going to be the Dev Phone 2. @Nate, you ready to head to Android? **BRENT**

Video as we were walking up to a group I BELIEVE was called "Blues Therapy & Jazz". Song should be "Watermelon Man", iirc. Here's a vid of a full song, but I forget what it was called. Again, I was recording with just a Flip Cam, so quality is so-so at best, but it's a little bit of what you missed if you were slackers and went home to your jobs or families or that non-sense. **BRENT**

Friday night @ Brother Tucker's Friday night @ the hotel redacted - please take this down from youtube Sunday @ the Jazz Brunch The end is where the guy threw the book, but I JUST missed it, it was JUST out of frame right before I turned to grab the crowd. Sunday @ Mike's Patio **BRENT** P.S. If I need to edit anything out for the guilty to seem innocent, lmk.

Ok... This was a killer meet. The NKOTTT (New Kids On The Travel Team) I think payed homage to the FL Travel crew. I have to be up for work in a few hours, so this will be quick. A big thanks go out to Mike, Alex, Al, Matt, Jeff... wait, let me just put who not to thank. __________ I want say that my fav rig was Alex's Exemplar 2900 -> Luxman P1 -> Grado HP-1 (I dug the one with switches over the other two... not sure if it's "coolness" factor of the switches or the "shrunken bowls" (they seemed to be about 80% size to me). Vicki's rig is sick. Matt's vinyl rig sounded REALLY good on the HD800s. That was really enjoyable. One big thing I'd like to do is mirror Mike's sentiments and really really send a heartfelt thanks to the Zu guys. I spent a solid half hour listening to them over the two rooms, and I did like them for some things, others it was harder to make an opinion of as I wasn't familiar the music, but it I can kinda understand why you wouldn't throw on "standards". Anyways, these guys brought a ton of gear a long long ways (drove from about 1.5 hours further away than me, passing my place along the way just off the interstate. I though the 5 hours I spent going through airports and planes was bad!) The Zu guys were really passionate about what they do, and you could tell they enjoyed it, even when they were winding down. Oh, before I forget, @Dash for getting sick and having to back out. I missed seeing him there and hanging out. OK, I've fallen asleep at the keyboard thrice now, so let me just say I'll be adding some more to it later. Thanks to all who made it happen, and for giving me yet another great weekend with friends. **BRENT** P.S. On our way out to the airport we got behind a cab... just though I'd post up one of the last pics I grabbed.

Pancake House, if anyone's interested... **BRENT**

Fire alarm... 8:37am. Toast? Burnt. People? Pissed. It's been hypothesized that I was just too hot and set off the alarm. **BRENT**

I just took a shower. A douche for a douche!

^ Wish you were too, Dan. Especially since Vicki has her new MBP and doesn't know how to use it yet. **BRENT**

Call the hotel when u land and they send the shuttle... takes about 15 minutes. **BRENT**

Heh... bastard. **BRENT**

The curse of #s... "I always wake up at 7"... doesn't mean we have to. Ok, it was 7 central for me, and Al got back to sleep. 2 hours extra for me over normal, though. Alex, you're a slacker. Pm me if u are coming to the hotel... Oh... the dumbass who packed my laptop forgot to put the charger in Anyone have a spare charger for a compaq cq60?

Didn't stop #s... **BRENT**

Pizza, beer, liquor, dead hookers... good start so far. **BRENT**

X2 **BRENT**

New job in 1 hour, flight in 12. **BRENT**

Hey... if the bar(s) are beer only, I'll be sober and can drive. **BRENT**

Probably a repost, but something this morning reminded me of this so thought I'd share. **BRENT**
